The purpose of the notification system is to help prevent people from filing fraudulent land records with the County Clerk, making it look like they own your home or business property.
"Scam artists pick a house to steal, maybe a rental property. They then assume the homeowner's identity using any information they can find on the homeowner, create fake ID’s, forge signatures and notarizations, and file a fraudulent deed transferring the property away from the legitimate homeowner. Next, they record the deed and sell the property or re-mortgage it and pocket the proceeds – and can be long gone before the homeowner is aware of what’s happened"
